Nick Piggin 35a82d1a53 [PATCH] optimise loop driver a bit
Looks like locking can be optimised quite a lot.  Increase lock widths
slightly so lo_lock is taken fewer times per request.  Also it was quite
trivial to cover lo_pending with that lock, and remove the atomic
requirement.  This also makes memory ordering explicitly correct, which is
nice (not that I particularly saw any mem ordering bugs).

Test was reading 4 250MB files in parallel on ext2-on-tmpfs filesystem (1K
block size, 4K page size).  System is 2 socket Xeon with HT (4 thread).

intel:/home/npiggin# umount /dev/loop0 ; mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/loop ; /usr/bin/time ./mtloop.sh

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
